Hi everyone,
Just finished building another greenland paddle after breaking my last one
after about 3 hours of use.  I fiberglassed the other one and figured since it
didnt seem to help at all with strength why bother?  The wood is Teak (a very
lucky driftwood find) and I was thinking linseed oil might be the way to go to
give it a nice finish.  Anyone got any suggestions?  I'd kind of like to keep
that natural look.
appreciate your time,
Robin Lovelock
Still building junk in Mobile Al.
